2016 Map of Echo

About this map

The Sabine River serves as the primary artery through this low-lying borderland between Texas and Louisiana, carving a complex network of bayous, sloughs, and oxbows. The river's winding course creates distinct landforms such as Blue Elbow, Jackson Cutoff, and the broad Big Eddy, defining the boundary between Orange Co and Calcasieu Parish. On the eastern banks, the settlement of Niblett Bluff sits amidst a landscape of ridges including Beef Ridge and Pine Ridge, while the community of Toomey anchors the southeastern corner of the map.
